In Hornet Leader PC, players command a squadron of the U.S. Navy's elite F/A-18 Hornet Strike Fighters, selecting the pilots and arming the aircraft based on real-world mission briefings. Office-chair pilots can fly high-intensity missions over Iraq, Libya, and North Korea from 1991 to 2007, the companies said in a joint news release.

"We're thrilled to be working with such a skilled team such as Dan Verssen and Derek DiBenedetto (of Storm Cloud Studios)," said David Heath, Director of Operations at Matrix Games. "Hornet Leader PC has been a highly anticipated title for me since the moment we started talking to Dan and Derek about it. I'm confident gamers will share my excitement as more details become available."

Gamers can take to the skies and experience the tactical thrill of commanding some of the most elite aircraft in the world in historical/plausible missions with fantastically realistic equipment and enemies.
